Official Under 19 World Cup thread

19 needed off the last over. Disappointing this from SA, especially when they bowled out India for such a small total.

Great shot that.

14 needed from 3 balls. Game over.

 

[duffer]

Goneski!

 

[Protean]

Ah, all over.

 

[duffer]

No no-balls or wides please.

 

[Pratters]

Out! Well done India... Congrats to South Africa for reaching up to here. There are some talented players in both sides which is excellent.

 

[duffer]

Yeah great show Saffies. Would love to see Vandiar and Engelbrecht make it to the top. Really loved watching those two guys go.

 

[duffer]

WOOOOOHOOOOOO!!!!!!

Great day for India!

Well done to Indian guys

I guess this is the difference between 19s and the seniors. Handling of pressure...I mean, some of the bowling by India at the death was just terrible. But the South Africans couldn't hit the full tosses for six...Most FC cricketers would cream those.

Exciting tournament, very enjoyable to watch and India deserved to win, they were definitely miles ahead of everyone else. Noone expected SA to do so well though and I'm proud of what they've done, hopefully next time they will put more effort in this team, which has only been together since December. Can't wait to see some of these guys coming through.

Controlling the ball in those conditions would have beem very difficult though. I've seen enough of a lot of the lads in the tournament to be excited. From all the countries to be honest.

You should be. They were my favourite team to watch in this tournie. Gutted they had to be on the losing team. Love their spirit.

Of course, I'd be excited too had Australia won, I'm just saying, watching these guys really makes you appreciate the current standard of International cricket being played.
